Now remains the question, why the browser isn't doing this. Do you have a <meta> tag specifying the encoding 'UTF-8' in your HTML code? If yes, is the browser not UTF-8 aware? Or does it prefer the encoding specified in the response header and this is different or/and wrong?
I vaguely remember this issue was discussed only a short time ago: there are three places where a character encoding is specified: 1. The content type HTTP header 2. (optional) the XML declaration (for XHTML) 3. The META tag in the HTML header Unfortunately, the character encoding may be omitted from the content type header, and it defaults to ISO-8859-1. This is usually the authoritative information for all browsers and overrides the encoding declaration in the META tag, except for IEx, which usually prefers to second-guess everything.
Ok, back to the original question: The interesting point is that the letter ł is not in ISO-8859-1 but apparently in ISO-8859-2 (the encoding of this mail message). If this was really delivered to the browser and not just caused by a clever cut&paste, I'm really interested how this got out of Cocoon without obvious configuration changes...
